It was a pleasure to meet a number of you at the Duffer Classic Golf tournament, then more of you days later at our Premier’s breakfast.

One of the commitments I made to the board when they hired me was to visit each of our members. I aim to keep this promise. I want to know what you like about Prince Albert, what you’d like to see from your local chamber, what we do well, and how we can work harder for you.
